All simpleRTK2B modules are sold customized based on the customer needs.
Multi-band
Typical convergence times of modules based on:
– Single band RTK (NEO-M8): <60s
– Multi band RTK (ZED-F9P): <10s
• Reduces convergence time
• Increases ambiguity fixing rates
• Increases overall cm-level position availability
Multi-constellation
• GPS & GLONASS: readily available in L2C/L2OC
• Galileo: full E5b constellation by ~2020
• BeiDou: B2I available until migration to B2a
Radio link flexibility
simpleRTK2B can be used with almost any radio link: wifi, 3G, BT, LoRa, …
We offer 3 options: short range (BT), medium range and long range. Check our store to learn more!

Configurations
simpleRTK2B supports different operating modes
Standalone – simplest way of reaching 1m position accuracy without range limitations
The most basic configuration is to use simpleRTK2B as a standalone GNSS application board.
Connect it to your Arduino, computer or smartphone and you will get your position in seconds.
Base – rover configuration – get <3cm accuracy with a maximum range of 20km from the base station
Use two simpleRTK2B configured as base station and rover.
Connect the base station and/or rover to your Arduino, computer or smartphone and you will get both positions in seconds.
Base – multiple rovers configuration – get <3cm accuracy with a maximum range of 20km from the base station
Configure one simpleRTK2B as base and broadcast its RTK corrections to as many rovers as you want to get centimeter level accuracy.
Connect it to your Arduino, computer or smartphone and you will get your position in seconds.
RTK moving base configuration – get <3cm accuracy and a complete Attitude and Heading Reference system with a maximum range of 20km from the base station
Configure one simpleRTK2B as base and two/three simpleRTK2B as rovers, mounted on a drone, car, ship, …
Connect it to your Arduino, computer or smartphone and you will get your position, attitude and heading in seconds.
Standalone with RTK/SSR corrections – get <3cm accuracy without range limitations (subject to mobile network coverage)
Use simpleRTK2B as a standalone GNSS application board combined with SSR corrections to get centimeter level accuracy.
Combine it with a 3G module and you will get centimeter level accuracy without range limitations.
Connect it to your Arduino, computer or smartphone and you will get your position in seconds.
